35. Omar Ali Saifuddin MosqueOur worry for the missing bag, and the tropical heat, overshadowed the first day in Bandar Seri Begawan.
However, we had time for a short walk in the city centre. Our first stop was the
Omar Ali Saifuddin Mosque, built in 1958 and named after the 28th sultan of Brunei. Although
it was open for non-muslims for some hours almost every day, we preferred to stay outside. It was
certainly an impressive building.
